Little low on the CCA for cold climates.Might want to keep it on a battery tender all winter long to keep it from freezing.Any battery that I've had under 300cca or so has frozen over the last couple of years.The 230 cca batteries I got from wallmart over the years have all either froze or died after only a couple years.I have a 360CCA napa battery in my old sears and it seems to be doing good yet after 6 years.

I lost a cheap 2 year old 250cca sears diehard battery this year do to freezing.I keep a couple batteries on the shelf in my shed but there's no power in the shed for a tender.

That does seem small. I try to get the 340 or so amp/hr for most of mine. I DO buy wally world but never keep tractors long enough usually to see if they last, heh! Also get from my local parts house, but don't recall brand at moment. At $15, if it don't last more than the one year, still not a big loss really, unless you are buying Many of them for Many tractors all the time.

Are you guys finding these 300+ cca batteries in the standard GT U1 size? I think the largest U1 I've seen was 275?

To the OP, $15 is a really good price. Look closely at the fine print on the label. It should say who actually made it. There's only three big battery manufacturers but a lot of different labels they put on the cases so I'm sure yours will be fine.
